Lucy will be laid to rest in her beloved home of Norfolk, where the relatives and friends are invited to attend her funeral in Elmwood Cemetery at the graveside, Tuesday, Nov. 16, at 10 a.m. Farewell grand lady, we are all the better for having been a part of your life. Lucy was born Jan. 13, 1919, in Norfolk. She was the daughter of the late Clarence A. Neff and Lucy Latone Thom Neff. Lucy reluctantly left Bay Point, Fla., to live in Mount Pleasant, S.C., for the last six years of her amazing life. Her heart remained in Florida where she was loved and admired by a wonderful group of friends. Lucy lived this life as gracefully as any woman ever has or shall. Those of us blessed by her charm, wit, wisdom and charisma will miss her. Lucy leaves her two sons, John J. Hilton III and his wife, Linda, of Hollywood, S.C., and Cameron T. Hilton and his wife, Janet, of Mount Pleasant, S.C. Lucy is also survived by two equally beautiful and charming granddaughters, Laura Hilton James and her husband, Rob, of North Charleston, S.C., and Katherine Anne Thom Hilton of Denver. Lucy leaves two great-grandchildren, Zachary and Ella James. Three wonderful friends and companions sadly send their farewell love to Lucy: Sarah B. Merritt of North Charleston, Genet Robinson of Mount Pleasant and Mona Jordan of North Charleston. Their relationship surpassed the bounds of caregiving in ways only they understand. The family requests that, in lieu of flowers, contributions be made to either The Omaha Home for Boys at www.omahahomeforboys.org or 4343 North 52nd St., Omaha, NE 68104 or a charity of choice.
